Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / January 2006Ringworm update
I almost forgot the good news: TED rang me last week and told me the ringowrm test was negative!! We're not completely out of the woods yet, as she said there might still be some spores left, but they are suppressed by the meds. We will take one last test next month (hopefully it really is the last), just to make sure, but right now it looks like we beat this! Yay! I can take the fuzzy toys out of the freezer. ;o)  SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban.

I'm closely watching Chloe's ear for any more bald spots, but the fur is growing in, so I think she's okay. Pua's fine and Tyrone is fine, so Chloe's the last one to show any signs. Unfortunately, she's also the hardest one to treat; biting and fighting. I've been battling ringworm since August, now. Congratulations on your ringworm fight!

It was a hard-fought war, and you each bear a few scars, but you won. The enemy is in full retreat. Now, with any luck you'll get a short respite before the next crisis.

I read somewhere that freezing should kill them, but forgot to ask TED about it. So I shoved all the fuzzy toys in the freezer anyway, because the spores are most apt to stick to fuzzy surfaces.

But that is also the reason why I'm not going to take Adrian's advice. Brrrr! SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban.

It's 12:32 in the afternoon here. kili >>>>> we beat this! Yay!

Thinking positively the next test will be negative also! Charleen >I almost forgot the good news: TED rang me last week and told me the >ringowrm test was negative!!

I >can take the fuzzy toys out of the freezer. ;o) Oh, I don't know, Marina. Frozen fuzzy toys are always helpful to have on hand if you have unexpected company.... =o) But if you want to keep them frozen, it would seem that all you need to do right now is pop them outside and Finland will do the hard work for you. Congrats, and I hope the Ring Worm TRULY is gone! Melissa Melissa > I almost forgot the good news: TED rang me last week and told me the > ringowrm test was negative!!

Lots and lots of purrs and best wishes for the last test to be negative, Polonca and Soncek > I almost forgot the good news: TED rang me last week and told me > the ringowrm test was negative!!
